Our most frequent questions begin with, “Is it okay if…(fill in the blank)?”

We get a lot of questions where people are unsure of if they can do something or even suggest something for their own funeral, or when arranging for a loved one. We welcome these questions every time.

In fact, we wish there were more of them. When you come to us with specific questions or requests, we end up with a more unique and personalized experience for those attending the funeral. You know yourself and your family best, so... ask away!

If you would like us to contact you to answer any of your questions, let us know if you prefer communication by phone or email: http://205100.celebrate-life.us/reach-out/

This is a good question to ask. We like to be upfront about embalming. Embalming is not required by law, except in a few special circumstances. In nearly all cases, you do not have to embalm. Contact us if you have specific questions about this or other topics. We are always striving for honest and open communication on all things funeral related.

Fortunately, FEMA recently announced a program to provide financial relief for those who lost a loved one to COVID-19.

If I could send a ‘digital care package’ to the caregivers in my life, I think it’d have these things and more!

We are so grateful for the caregivers in our community, both family members who step in and professional caregivers. They deserve special recognition and endless support.

Some ways to honor your loved one on their birthday, an anniversary date, holiday and more...
- Bring flowers to their final resting place, or simply go for a visit
- Listen to a voicemail they've left you or a video recording
- Do one of their "favorites" - watch a movie, attend their church, grab a scoop or two of their favorite ice cream
- Get creative - make art, sing, play an instrument
- Send part of their cremated remains to be made into a tree, jewelry, etc.
- Write them a letter
- Make a donation in their honor

Wondering what to wear to a digital funeral? Wear whatever feels right to you! If you feel like dressing up to honor you loved one, do so. If you prefer to be comfortable, that's great too. Maybe wear their favorite color, or for the sports fan, their favorite team's jersey.

Whatever you choose, don't forget to engage in the service and show the family support to help you view the funeral as a funeral - helping you prepare to grieve.
